emulators/cannonball: Updates to 0.32

Changes since 0.31:

Controller Improvements & Rumble Support

This release focuses on Controller Support & Improvements.

Please replace your old config.xml file when upgrading to this release.

  * [Controllers] Basic rumble support can now be enabled from the CONTROLS
    menu. The strength can be adjusted. The code that controls the rumble is
    identical to that of the upright arcade machine motor shaker. The option
    will only show in the menu if your controller is supported.
  * [Controllers] Auto-detection and assignment of controller buttons and axis
    should be much improved. I will update the manual to call out the default
    controls in due course. (Right trigger = accelerate, Left trigger = brake,
    Start = Start, Back = Menu, A = Gear Change, X = Change View, Y = Coin).
    These can be redefined as desired.
  * [Controllers] D-Pad can be used in menus.
  * [Menus] Gamepad/Joystick settings has its own menu.
  * [Menus] Ensure that 'A' button on controllers can be used to select items.
    Analog accelerate is now only used when run via original arcade cabs as
    it's not optimal.
  * [Rom Loader] Sped up CRC32 based loading by using a Hashmap. It was
    reportedly slow when used over a network.
  * [Rom Loader] It is possible to switch back to the old filename loading
    system via a setting in config.xml
  * [Config] It is now possible to change and configure the location of the
    'res' directory.

emulators/cannonball: Updates to 0.31

Changes since g20191023:

Maintenance Release

This release focuses on upgrading the libraries and compilation tools CannonBall
uses, as I hadn't maintained the codebase in a number of years. Most of these
changes will be invisible to most users. Right now, I'm trying to get the house
in order as opposed to add lots of wild new features! :)

  * [audio] Audio updates at the correct rate and resolves the longstanding
    issue with music and sound being very slightly 'off'
  * [roms] ROMs are now read by CRC 32 value. Filenames no longer matter - so
    long as they are present they can be renamed to anything.
